Wreckers Start Work on Coop

The Cooperative Society yesterday finished moving into the rear of the new building on Harvard Square, which will serve as its temporary home until the front of the new structure is completed. By January 17 the wreckers will have torn down the present structure completely, and work on the new building, which will be completed by August, 1925, will begin immediately.

"Doubling the floor space will be only one of the advantages of the new building," declared Mr. Cole, manager of the Cooperative Society. "First of all, the building will be at street level, thus doing away with having to tramp up a flight of steps. Secondly, with a new system of arcaded windows, we will have a much greater show window space. Also in the new building the men's furnishings will be moved from the second to the first floor. Thus the three big departments, the stationery, book, and men's furnishings will all be on the same floor.
